CTF - Interest Groups - Abstract Art - Session 1

The students on my CTF interest group during the last session before Christmas created abstract paintings or mixed-media collages on canvas board based on a theme of their choice. In the time allotted, students had opportunities to experiment, create and showcase their knowledge and skill in this abstract art style. 

A number of the art projects created by the students were basically a collage of shapes, images and text (words & phrases) glued to 9” X 12” canvas boards.  The background on the canvas board was painted. The selection of the images, cutouts, shapes and colour choice of the background was dependent upon the individual’s personality or preference. 

Another option for students was to create abstract paintings focusing on an assortment of geometric shapes created by the selection of a myriad of colour separated by white or black spaces.
Below are some pictures of some of the students’ work that was created.
